This the second Demon Boyz album (the first is higher up). It's a tough find and is pretty much unavailable digitally. I have only vague memories of the first LP but with that this sounds like a progression.
The title track sets it off - lightweight sample based production, and some raga style rapping. When the music is tight, for me it works, Outer National Karate being especially good: Living in Society is like Karate? The second half of the album turns up the raga knob: Sweet Jamaica is interesting and loses all the things I liked about the first half of the record. The standout track is Glimity Glamity: A tight guitar hook that runs throughout the tune. For me it's the only track on the record that successfully blends together the raga and rap styles. Otherwise this was a bit too cheesy for me.
And youtube turns up the video to No Hocus Pocus, and this sounds way better than on the album:
